  • Universal Penman NEWSLETTER of the PROVIDENCE ATHENÆUM
    Universal Penman NEWSLETTER OF THE PROVIDENCE ATHENÆUM MESSAGE FROM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, “Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, ALISON MAXELL We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!” Humbert Wolfe Ah, sweet Autumn - colorful foliage, crisp fall mornings, warm wool sweaters – my favorite time of the year. The shift in the seasons, the hint of promised change stirs my soul…and today I am grateful. This past spring you left us spellbound by your spirit and generosity – exceeding our Annual Fund expectations and sending us into the summer with promise and possibility. In early July we reviewed final recommendations from our consultancy and received news of Christina’s fellowship. Informed by both, we made the bold decision to suspend fall programming to enable board and staff to engage more deeply in the planning process – a strategic investment now of time and talent for the promise of a future filled with new possibility. By August, the Athenaeum became center stage - transforming from library to Hollywood set to construction site as members, tourists, artists, filmmakers, and contractors came and went. Suddenly, summer slipped by, students returned, a new semester began - the hustle and bustle of Benefit Street was back - fall had arrived. Inside the Athenaeum, leaves and crushed berries spot the carpets while the familiar scent of old books suggests you are home. Depending upon the day, Mary, Tina, Amy, Amanda, Kirsty, Kathleen, Stephanie or Morgan await your arrival, ready with the latest mystery, best seller, or biscuit (canines only)! Meanwhile, Mary Anne and Allen are upstairs ordering and cataloging the next batch of new books.

  • First Medical College in Vermont: Castleton, 1818-1862
    V hbl, stx R 747.C2932W3 First medical college in Vermont: 3 T153 DD515D13 3 £tf S THE HISTORY OF THE FIRST MEDICAL COLLEGE IN VERMONT OC Oss «M5 1$ 1> <3 THE-5IRST MEDICAL COLLEGE IN VERMONT Castleton 1818-1862 FREDERICK CLAYTON WAITE VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY MONTPELIER 1949 COPYRIGHT 1949 BY VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY VERMONT PRINTING COMPANY, BRATTLEBORO, VERMONT FOREWORD This volume realizes the long-time hope that a history of Castleton Medical College could be written by Dr. Waite, foremost authority on the early medical colleges and on many other subjects of medical his- tory. With his history of the medical college at Woodstock, Vermont, which the Society had the honor to publish in 1945, this completes the story of the medical colleges in Vermont which had a great influence on a national scale until the Civil War interrupted. The projected history of the Medical Department of the University of Vermont, by another author, when completed and published, should bring up to date the history of all medical educational institutions in Vermont. It is impossible to praise too highly the great devotion and research and effort freely contributed by Dr. Waite. Many years have passed since he first considered it, and was urged to complete it, at his own expense. The Rutland County Medical Society has given $100 and Mr. George Adam Ellis has given $1,000 to pay for some of the expenses of preparation and publication which could not be met by the Society or by Dr. Waite. There have been other contributions of money and time.

  • 2017 PPS Annual Report
    2017 annual report Providence Preservation Society a look back and ahead From 1986-2010, PPS prioritized the education of schoolchildren as part of our educational mission. The goal of the program was to actively involve students with the social and cultural development of Providence by helping them understand why the buildings and landscapes of each neighborhood uniquely contribute to the city’s character and vitality. This is especially important because most children don’t live in the storied College Hill neighborhood. In order for them to form an understand- ing of and attachment to this city - in hopes they will become advocates for it - we must meet them where they are. education is critical to ensuring citizens understand why our city is treasured Based on the available statistics, we know that from 1986 to 2004 more than 40,000 schoolchildren from all over Rhode Island participated in PPS’s Children’s Heritage Education Program (CHEP). Over that time, school curriculums changed and, even with our financial support for bus transportation, attendance in the program by Providence schools fell steadily each year. The program was discontin- ued in 2010. Heritage or Preservation Education is critical to ensuring that current and future generations of citizens and policy makers understand why our city is treasured, and that it must be nurtured and protected. It’s not only a “nice thing to do,” it’s essential for cognitive development. Preservation Education uses local resources and the built environment to teach concepts and skills in the arts, humanities, sciences, and math. successful advocacy always starts with education The other leg of PPS’s mission is advocacy.
